Bab 168: Sometimes I feel like I'm the protagonist

"Who are you?!" a voice reverberating loudly in the crater. It sounded young, boyish, and came from everywhere and echoed like a ball bouncing through the wall. "Are you with those uglies?!"

Wow...I knew they were monsters, but...

"Do we look like those things?"

"You all look the same," the voice scoffed.

Pfft--I let out a giggle in reflex. It was so funny because there was nothing similar between corrupted beasts and abyssal monsters and demons, much less humans. So it sounded like a boy being petty for no reason.

Jade, meanwhile, tilted its head here and there, confused at the new voice while trying to pinpoint the source.

"But not you," the voice somehow came so close to my neck, even though there was nothing there. Jade flinched and Natha narrowed his eyes while looking around slowly, observing every crevice of the craters.
